Multitouch tablet computers (tablets) are devices that are particulary suited for education. However, there is a lack of good student applications for tablets, as well as a lack of educational software aimed at student collaboration in general. This project attempts to find methods that can enable student collaboration through the use of tablets in an attempt to enhance the user's education as well. This has resulted in the tablet application concept called PaboCommunity, which aims to combine digital study material available through the tablet with the mechanic of asking and answering questions to one's peers quickly and intuitively. In this way, we enable collaboration between students.
